the ride looks ok... you could bank the overbanked a little more, and that camel back looks really painful, unless its taken at a pretty slow rate.
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.

Are you sure that you really want that upside down tophat there, or was it a mistake when you entered your track into the AHG? Because you generally get something like that when you forget to color parts of the track with - vertical gs black.

That barrelroll looks WAY too tight, that hill is totally wrong, the overbank isn't overbanked, and looks weird, and get rid of the inverted tophat

i like the inverted top hat, the over banked looks too drawn out and the airtime hill looks very misshapen

Ok,not too bad except for the stuff mentioned already. I like the zero G roll into an even steeper drop, that is if you actually got it at zero G.

But non the less, looking at some of the weird things you've built there, I can say that you most definitely have to screw up the pacing to have safe forces and transitions over those elements which is unfortunately everything but B&M. The airtime hill is wayyyyyyy too small and could cause rollbacks if the g?????????s are actually intact. 25km/h Spells disaster. Remember famous words from John Wardley: ?????????Either it flies or it doesn't.????????? [;)]

Ok...I took your guys advice...

Improved airtime hill:

I dont know if I like this. I changed this to almost an inversion and I wanted to see what you thought:

I do realize that the ride is very uncharacteristic to B&M but that was what I wanted. I wanted to do something weird and out of the ordinary, just wait till you see the rest of the ride.

I assure you that all the Gs are in line and there are no spikes. It took me forever to get that first drop right. It is a slow paced ride in the beginning but it gets better in the second half of the ride.

Good. Build it lower, as in 10m lower. Just be careful of the lats.

I think you should bank it a little less dramatic.

Bettter?...Now banked at 121 degrees. Also notice the 42km/h rather than 3km/h. I lowered it.

Trust me, It is not out and back exept for the first part. If you want i can post pics of smack without AHG or you can just wait so it doesnt spoil the rest of the ride.
